Limnic eruptions are a rare, but potentially deadly class of natural disaster, in which toxic gases are rapidly expelled from a saturated lake.he resulting cloud killed 37 people who were living near the lake. At Lake Nyos, in 1986, a similar disaster occurred, in this case killing between 1,700 and 1,800 people, and uncounted numbers of livestock and other animals.
The other bone in the lower leg is the fibula, to which the hamstring, soleus and peroneus muscles attach. Like the tibia, the fibula is also an attachment site for the muscles that flex and extend the foot. The femur, the bone in the upper leg, is the attachment site for numerous muscles.
The shafts of the two bones are covered by muscles, except for the anteromedial aspect of the tibia, which lies directly beneath the skin all the way from the knee to the ankle.. The proximal end of the fibula doesnât form part of the knee joint, but its distal end forms an important part of the ankle joint, as weâll see. The tibia and fibula are held together throughout their length by the strong interosseous membrane. Above and below theâre attached at the two tibio-fibular joints.
